A spanish conservative European Commissioner said something very similar about Castro a few days back.
The same whacko that ranted about Gays [how ironic... if he ever gets appointed he'll be on the same Commision as Mandy] and Single Mums?
No. You're thinking of that Italian, incoming, guy who's apparently so far out that he might lead to the whole commission being voted down by the EP. Rocco Buttiglione.
I'm referring to Loyola de Palacio, outgoing commissioner. One of the Vice Presidents of the commission, too. She basically said, "I'll be glad if he dies, and I hope he dies soon. I don't want to see him assassinated, but I do want to see him dead", in relation to his fall. That's, shall we say, unusually honest, not the kind of thing politicians are supposed to say, but not really wrong, either.
